Comments for the name Sadie

I used to call my sister Sadie Grace because she acts like a princess and she's clumsy sometimes. I used Sadie because it's a pet form of Sarah. Sarah means princess. And I used Grace as in graceful. But her real name is Hali.

This name is used in the Beatle's song 'Sexy Sadie' and the Disney Channel show called 'Naturally Sadie'.

Sadie is a pretty name for a girl, not overly used. It is increasing in popularity right now.

I adore this name! To me, Sadie seems like she would be the perfect person: lively, smart, fun, pretty, talkative, and anyone would feel comfortable around her. I am naming my daughter Sadie Elisabeth if I have a girl.

That is my name - SADIE ELIZABETH! I love my name! I have only met one or two other Sadies my age (23). Fair warning to parents - every Sadie I know is very smart, spunky, independent, very sexual, attention loving, stubborn, egotistical, and beautiful. Can you handle it?

Sadie makes me think of a blowsy, middle-aged barmaid. Although I read in one book that it's gaining popularity with the British gentry, to me it seems hopelessly low-class. I think that people are getting so anxious to find something new in given names that they will turn to absolutely anything!

This is my name and I like it. The only thing that is bad about the name is that a lot of people call me Sadie Bob and getting called Bob is not a good thing to me. It makes me feel like a child because not many people would think of Sadie as an adult.

My mother's name is Sadie, so it gives me a lovely feeling of home when I hear it. She's always said with pride that it means "princess" because it's a derivative of Sarah, and I like the fact that her name makes her feel special.

I find this name totally charming yet slightly quirky and not overused. Sade would be a nice nickname too. I don't know that I could name my daughter this and I've never met a Sadie but if I came accross someone with this name I would think it was quite cool.

My name is SadeeAnn. I love my name! I am the only SadeeAnn I know =). Thanx mom! I live in a pretty big town & the only Sadies I know, one goes to my high school, & the other works at the ER. I know no Sadees either!

I am the complete opposite of everyone who thinks Sadie isn't mature enough for older women. My aunt is called Sadie and I could never name a daughter Sadie for this reason. My aunt's lovely, but Sadie just sounds too old fashioned. It may be modern in America, but in Northern Ireland it's been around for over 60 years.

My daughters name is Sadie (Sarah). It took us six weeks to name her! She has 3 older siblings who helped with her naming... so... lots of nicknames. My favorite... Sadie. We think Sadie is a great name. No regrets! Have fun. :)

Sadie is my second favorite girl's name! I think it's cute, pretty, elegant, and whimsical. I think it will age just fine, but if you really like this name and are worried about it not aging well, you could always name her Sarah/Sara and call her Sadie as a nickname! (:

I find this a truly awful name. I am not happy about it, because I usually try to find the best in every name. There is usually something positive one can say about a name. But I really, really don't like this one. It reminds me of the word sadist. It reminds me of the awkward tradition of Sadie Hawkins, the yucky old time dances where girls asked boys to dance (not that it's necessarily yucky for a girl to ask a boy to dance. But those dances were definitely default and awkward.) Why not Sari? Or Sallie? Or Sandie?Please forgive me. I am sure I could learn to like the name. (One usually can.) It's just that, out of character for me, I find this one really bad. My apologies.

LOVE! But only for a nickname. I think of names ending in "ie" as nicknames.

I agree, it's quite a popular dog name. But, seeing as a lot of stereotypically 'dog names' like Bella, Max, and Bailey have gotten so popular, I have a feeling Sadie will be in the top 100 in a few years. I prefer it used as a nickname for Sarah.

I have a dear aunt whose name this was, but she spelled her name SADYE. (She later changed her name.) I love this name and the way my aunt spelled it. To me, Sadye looks more versatile and majestic written than Sadie. I also have a gorgeous, regal calico cat named Sadye but of course, it's after my aunt, not because of I think of it as a pet/animal name. I call my cat Sade a lot.

I think its very pretty, it makes me think of the color grey, not that dark depressing grey, a light grey that also reminds me of morning. I also see Sadie as the perfect name for a very smart bookworm girl who is very nice and talkative. If I have a daughter I will name her Sadie, and NO I do NOT agree that it sounds old or whatever. I honestly don't see why people think that.This is my favorite girl name, I really really like this name.
